My dealer glued in my grommets after the first time one went missing.
The last paragraph tells it All. The riding position did not work for me on my RT but highway pegs helped. Look into what is available before you buy. Good Luck.
I would imagine that it will be more agile then the full blown touring RTS and with less weight to push, the 990 will be more acceptable to this chassis. The foot pegs moving ahead and lower should...
I wonder how BRP sales will be without a new Engine for this year? I think lower. I know that big changes don't come over night but this is the 6th year of production for the Spyder, Tired!
The Rt required Premium fuel because it has a higher compression engine then the RS to get the extra torque. Now that all models are using the same engine I would guess Premium would be required for...
I for one wanted a larger displacement for torque not HP. Not looking at doing 100 mph. The Spyder is not built for that!! Multiple cylinders also means smoother.
A Great Presentation!!!!!
Nonsense!!!!!
Does the 2013 models have the same throttle bodies?
Limp mode Sucks!! Yes, mine was for a mm low on brake fluid! Stupid. What's wrong with just a warning light????
Congrats to BRP on the 2013 upgrades. Does it inspire me to want one, NOT! From what I have read they have created an in between model that will give some an option between sport and touring. The...
Nothing to exciting! No engine change, Bo ho!!
There has to be more to the 2013 model year then just the ST !!!
Nothing about the RT or bigger engine?
In our thoughts and Prayers!!
I heard it is a definite, probably an inline 3 cyl 1500 cc engine. For those worrying about gas mileage, more tourque, lower revs means same or better gas mileage I would think. I wisk they would...
Don't worry, dry sump system means the engine is full all the time and the resivoir holds the excess, about 2 1/2 quarts. Being down in the resivoir 3/4 quart is not an issue!
Scotty is right but with low mileage I would suspect the Spyder was not just on paved roads. We have all covered many miles on paved roads without incident. Belts are a low cost replacement for...
I hope you are wrong and that BRP are going to have a larger displacement engine for 2013 RT model. The RS will probably stay the same but the RT is a tourer and needs lower reving higher tourque...
My oil tank Gold Plug had a bit of stuff on the magnet my last oil change so it was nice having it there.
Ain't gona happin !! Electronics slow us down along with soft suspensions!! Legalities, you know like signing that you know you are driving a bike with three wheels and only one brake! BRP don't want...
A Bigger displacement? Yes I think so but is space a problem? I would think a V4 is narrower then a 3 cylinder and would run smoother as well. Time will tell ??
You are right about that! The RT needs a lower reving engine with tourque that will cruise effortlessly. The belt drive needs a different adjustment design for easy Maintenence and smoother running...
I to have the 2 Gold Plug drain bolts and think they are much better then the OEM plugs. To bad the tranny fluid is part of the engine oil or we could all go a lot farther between changes. The sludge...
Hey, what's this about filters coming apart? It sounds like BRP had problems with the oil filters and now have updated them? First I heard of filter issues.
Just wondering what symptoms for a bad actuator? My Rt SM will go into reverse every time but once in awhile my screen will not revert back to temp gauge, it stays in reverse mode. It dies come back...
Anyone running 3000 rpms must drive Buicks. I own a Miata and never go below 4000 rpms. I find 5000 to be the sweet spot!
Well, you are lucky. I would have thought that would aggravate the situation. I have my windshield cut down and my bracket cracked and was replaced. I notice it shakes side to side when on back roads...
:agree:Me to! I love my tenders! Keeps my batteries fresh and ready to go, I think it extends their lives as well.
I installed 2 belt tensioners, mine and a friends. First thing I did was to use a vise grip to hold the bracket to the right spot before drilling and once in place and strongly clamped, I drilled...
